We finally did a little promo of some of the work we have made over the years! We are only a little company driven by (insert our own names caus we crap at self promotion) @lisafaalafi and @leahsheltonlive and we do our best to continue to create work that moves us, makes us feel joy, letās us vent our anger at the world, pushes to change perspectives. Anyway this is just a small sample but we are proud of our work and everyone who shares the stage with us.
So congrats to us for keeping on keeping on and also stay turned for some more Polytoxic news soon caus⦠we donāt stop!

@laboitetheatre
Vale Busty Beatz, the iconic, the irreplaceable, the razor-sharp, funny, political, unwavering artist & human - honouring over 15 years of collaboration with you, your epic mixes, wicked sense of humour, passionate support (not to mention your alter-ego Big M.I.C. - everyoneās fave misogynist music mogul š).
Itās so hard to believe there wonāt be another rehearsal room, living room, table of food we arenāt going to share together. How do you measure all these shared experiences & distil them down to a couple of sentences?
Your legacy will live on.
And yes, weāll say it - Big M.I.C. really was THE BEST.
Polytoxic Loves You.

Our Queen Bee @bustybeatz walked towards the ancestors last night surrounded by family and friends, wrapped in hugs, flowers and tears. A leader, a staunch sister, a mentor, a maker of beatz, heart rhythms and words that made us stand up and listen.
I know we will continue to create beautiful art together from the dream world, full of joy and cheekiness, built with radical fierce love and a middle finger to the systems. But for now Queen Sleep well, rest.
The family will be holding a private ceremony but feel free to take a moment and ask your ancestors to hold her with ours.
She was the wordsmith not me so Iāll leave you with a poem from her.
Confessions of the Brutally Blessed
THE CALLING
I call upon the love given
I call upon the love giving
Humbly
With gratitude
To fill my soul overflowing into the universe
To those who sent love
I dance within the redefinition
To fill this disconnected soul
Break the shackles
Love prism
Take these unliveable factors
Make rhythm
Together like that
Iām driven
From my vision
I glisten
In precision
Cell division
Itās a task
Iām open up to last
This calling
A Heartsong
Iām smitten
- Busty āKim Bowersā Beatz
Lisa and Busty can be seen together as #bambolegiapponesi dolls as part of the show "Inked Up" at The Churn Room, Dayboro.
Running through to April 26.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY @leahsheltonlive
Celebrating ALLLL that she is!! Multifaceted, multitalented, peri rage filled, joyful, silly force of nature who I am lucky enough to share the helm of Polytoxic with. To have a collaboration that spans decades is a honour and privilege.
So letās send some big alofa to Leah on her Birthday!!
